The following material came from a set of four books called 'LITTELL'S LAWS--THE STATUTE LAW OF KENTUCKY', printed in 1809-1814. They belonged to our ancestor, John Mercer, who served in the legislature of Kentucky, from Caldwell Co. from 1808-1819. The books passed down to his son, William, then to his grandson John Edwin, who brought them to Wise Co., Tex. when he came with his wife, Elizabeth and eight children, in a covered wagon in the year 1875. The books were stored in an earthen vault for many years and were given to us by a grandson of John Edwin's. Martha Clark jerrypclark@earthlink.net
